Has Anyone Been To A Neurologist

[Lost in the Woods]

I am in the middle of the Pete Walker book and I highly recommend it.

Sooooo many neurologists.

For overwhelmingly neurological issues/causes. Like concussion, skull fracture, infection.

It’s like going to a gynaecologist. When your brain/pussy is involved? See someone who specializes in it.

I have never quite thought of it that way.

Hey read a lot of stuff online different sites say the same that complex ptsd and bipolar are co-morbid, therefore they can coexist together, there those people have more mental complications; I can see why!

What I meant by that is I don’t see neurologists as being like gynecologists, I see them as being more like proctologists. Just saying…..

I just wanted to touch base about the jaw pain. TMJ for short it's common in people who bleach their jaw as in keeping your mouth shut. I went to a head chiropractor who freed my Jaw.
Sorry I haven't even by offered a neurologist it's hard enough in the UK even getting a PTSD diagnosis.

I did not bleach my teeth, yes in US as well a psychiatrist at hospital shunned the word PTSD, did not even want to talk of it when I mentioned it.

I have commented about this before. I had a horrendous experience in a facility. They diagnosed me according to their charts. But they did not even have PTSD as a possible diagnosis. One reason could be that there’s no medication to treat PTSD. Many doctors support the system by “selling drugs.” Big Pharma supports the system and the system supports big Pharma. It’s a giant machine, and it’s hard to find change. But change will come. Eventually. In the meantime, we have to learn how to work around it. With ADHD and dyslexia and who knows what else growing up, I had to learn how to work around those things in order to function. There’s always a workaround. A way to do it a little bit differently that will still work. In the Giant machine there’s no room for workarounds. That’s why I quit the system, fired my therapist, and I’ve been doing it on my own for a year now. Have been doing a lot of research and just got connected with a trauma informed therapist. Perfect fit! So very thankful there are options out there now. The machine is changing. Adapting. It has to. It’s a natural part of life. There is no life if there is no change. When we get stuck in a pattern, especially if it’s unhealthy, it leads to destruction. Sorry, got off on a tangent. Need to go take some time for me. Have a good day and always keep moving forward.

When I was young it 60s I had trouble with learning to comprehend what I read, now in my old age they have a diagnosis of ADD or ADHD, even PTSD and Complex , I read into it after my therapist said I have some form , I had homelessness, relative’s abandoned me, I was scared shitless, lived in my car, lost everything in 2009 housing crises, including my home.
Had an extremely dysfunctional family, enough to cause ptsd, especially with my mother who ridiculed me and loved it, she loved to upset people, especially me and my father, even though she did not ever have to work, see would lay down on the sofa all day almost, until dad died, I took off, I could not stand her and have a deep hatred her death was the best thing that happened and hope she suffers for what she put us through, she was so bad that no one in her family picked her up to go to my cousins wedding, for she was so messed up she could not even learn to drive a car, all she ever did in her life was work at a bakery, until her father pulled her out to get married forcing it down her throat sort of speak. My brother was 6 yrs older, he was ok younger, then he got involved with older women, I older men, don’t have to give a reason why you can tell, house was hell, argument after argument, I could not get a drivers license until my 20s, I never seen my dads workplace, promise never kept, thought he was proud of me, guess he changed his mind. He would drink heavy on weekends, one day he rented a car, drove drunk damaged car, he blamed the car.
I am sorry for all this writing, I have no close friends, if I go to hospital have to call dept of children and families. It’s a very hard life, now in my senior years it’s scarier cause everyone is gone and have no true friends.
I would love feedback, I love you all, especially you that have been through this or worse.

Don’t worry about sharing too much. One of the symptoms of trauma is over sharing. I’ve been trying to work on that for years. Just needed to be understood. I think you’ll find out here. And you won’t feel the need to share all the details, because we’ve all been through stuff and we get it. Thanks for sharing though. One day at a time. You’re welcome here. You’re safe here. Take good care of yourself.

I'm so so sorry, I didn't read my comment before I pushed send. Auto correct changed my keep to bleach. It has nothing to do with bleaching your teeth but many of us keep quiet or bite our tongues so therefore clench our jaws causing TMJ or the tightening of the jaw muscles. Again I apologise profusely for not checking before sending

No worries. I just did the same thing.
